[Bug 257052] Re: glipper crashed with ImportError in <module>()

[l33ting disorder]

I've gotten sick and tired of Ibex being so crashy so I reverted back to
8.04 (when I say reverted, I mean I backed up my home dir, paved the
partition, and installed a fresh 8.04).

Glipper is doing the exact same thing for my hardy install -
occasionally crashing on startup. It's 100% reliable that it WILL crash
on the first login when the computer is started up. Once the first login
has been done, I can log out, then log back in and most of the time it
won't crash (though sometimes it will still crash).

I don't think Gergely's theory holds water, since it's not a panel
error, it's actually glipper crashing when it tries to start up. I think
it's more likely that glipper has a dependency that isn't starting until
after glipper itself. (Part of me wonders if this stems back to the
libffi change, since I never had any glipper issues before 1.0-1ubuntu2
was rolled out to accommodate Ibex users)

Is there a way to force apt to install the previous version instead, and
to prevent apt from removing the previous version next time update-
manager runs?
